Ripple’s legal troubles over XRP are finally settling, fueling speculation about its long-anticipated IPO.
Though no official date has been set, analysts predict it could happen within the next 12 to 18 months.
With the lawsuit nearing its conclusion, Ripple’s path to a public offering seems clearer than ever. CEO Brad Garlinghouse has acknowledged the idea, suggesting it would help secure the company’s future.
However, he insists that acquisitions remain a higher priority. Despite his cautious stance, industry experts believe the IPO could arrive sooner rather than later.
A public listing could attract institutional investors who were previously hesitant due to regulatory uncertainty. Analysts foresee a surge in XRP’s price, with some projecting values as high as $10 or even $15.
Beyond XRP, Ripple’s move could also boost mainstream acceptance of crypto, strengthen blockchain’s credibility, and encourage more financial institutions to enter the space.
Though Ripple has yet to confirm its plans, the prospect of an IPO is already creating buzz. If it happens, it could be one of the most significant events in the crypto industry.
